Music HW#1 - 3度音程

比起一個8度內的3度音程,更喜歡高8度的3度的聲響,2個是完全不同的感覺。

3度音在指板上的相對位置

1. 一個8度的3


  • Root on 6th String

  • Root on 5th String

  • Root on 4th String

  • Root on 3th String

  • Root on 2th String


2. 高8的3


  • Root on 6th String

  • Root on 5th String

  • Root on 4th String


例子

1. 一個8度的3


  • 金雅中 - 瑪麗亞

分析:
 Key: B
 3度在前奏/主歌部份:運用 I VII VI VII 的3度和聲

2. 高8的3


  • RHCP - Scar Tissue



這首是讓我發現原來這麼好聽的聲音,其實只是3度 的歌。

分析:
 Key: F
 3度在前奏/主歌部份:運用 I V VI 的 R & 3 單音製造出遼闊的感覺。

  • James Bay - Let It Go



分析:
 Key: A#m
 

  • The Beatles - Blackbird



分析:
 這首是例子裡面最令人驚奇的,非常大量運用3度,除了前幾首的手法外,與根音的距離也是3。

How to Make Chord Progression

Learning how to make chord progression for a melody.

How to Make Chord Progression

如何幫一個旋律配上和弦?


  • 使用和弦內音的方式來配置

用 C, G7, Dm 和 F



  • 使用和弦內音的方式來配置 並 考慮 ii -> V -> I, I -> IV 等慣用進行

用大調 1-6 級



  • Tonic -> Sub-dominant -> Dominant -> Tonic 的感覺考慮進去
  • normally we use Tonic -> Sub-dominant or Tonic -> Dominant (but it’s more comfortable to use Tonic -> Sub-dominant -> Tonic) (1)
  • normally we use Sub-dominant -> Tonic or Sub-dominant -> Dominant (2)
  • normally we use Dominant -> Tonic (3)
  • 先用 I, IV, V 配置,再用 (3), (2), (1) 修飾

用 Secondary Dominant Chord



  • 每個和弦轉換皆可觀查是否能用
